When the noise of day recedes
in the shadowed graying light,
I see as the form and shape
distorts, an illuminated blight
The only things that seem
to hold our attention still,
is the moon and stars arising
over the height of the hill
The once brilliant sky becomes
Gods greatest form of art,
shimmering with their glowing
it would awe us from the start
Even with all that scares the mind
in the blackness of the night,
with the tiniest reach of chin
it cowers down from that sight
not even the gentle penetration
and the sliver of a knife,
can take away my intentness
to gape in awe at life
Born at the beginning of a time
that shattered the knowledge of man,
then with the cleverest of discoveries
everything became a digital plan
Yet, the miracle of daylight hours
can never begin to compete,
with this spectacular moonlight,
it was really an impossible feat
As first breath came from darkness
I would really like to confess,
I'm in love with stars and comets
my dreamtime walks de-stress
Breathtaking, evening arrives
the journey begins to the deep,
who really needs the comfort
of a restful, peaceful, sleep

Hi Jayne
This is a lovely description of the wondrous and awesome night sky captured by you in neatly crafted verses with a nice imagery...
I liked the between the lines message of these awesome sights are missed by those who sleep..
Much love n warm hugs...be well..
Dear Raj
Im still not finished with this one I am not 100% happy with it the thing is its not bad just needs something and I cant put my finger on it
Thanks for the read and comment I do love the night and over the last few years its mostly my only companion
But it is ever beautiful ...
Love and big hugs Jayne x
Nice job Sis...
I sometimes wish I didn't have to sleep, knowing that I am missing some part of the 24 hr. cycle. But alas, one can only do so much with too little sleep! It reminded me of being on the road in the desert at night. Far away from the lights of the cities with sky so black, you are looking deep into our universe, seeing millions of stars that many people never see. I wish every night could be like that!
Higgest bugs, ~ Gee.
Thanks Bro
Yeah I kinda like it but its missing something I'll have a little fiddle with it later, as you know I rarely get sleep at the present moment I've been awake for 27hrs its been a rough last 24hrs
Poetry has kept me from going insane channeling all that energy into my work I'm sitting here sweating like a beast its so god damned hot and muggy here still, god give us winter !!
Will try to catch up with you in the next couple of days
Much love and higgliest bugs Sis xxx
Dearest Jayne
You know I'm a fan of your work. This is beautiful but if you say you still need to polish it, well, you know best, dear. Let's see what you can come up with. Just don't make us wait too long with that much anticipation. Dunno about the others but I'll go nuts, I tell ya.
Lots of love and big hugs
